Jake Gyllenhaal (born December 19, 1980) is an American actor and producer, son of director Stephen Gyllenhaal and screenwriter Naomi Foner, and younger brother of actress Maggie Gyllenhaal. He rose to fame with films such as Donnie Darko, Brokeback Mountain (Oscar-nominated role), Nightcrawler and Prisoners, and later became a leading action star in films like Ambulance and Road House. He regularly returns to the stage, most recently playing Iago in the record-breaking 2025 Broadway revival of Othello opposite Denzel Washington.
Netflix bought the action thriller Kill Switch from screenwriter Harrison Querye, in which Gyllenhaal will play the lead role.
On March 6, the gothic crime film The Bride! premiered, inspired by Frankenstein, directed by his sister Maggie Gyllenhaal.
In the action film In the Grey directed by Guy Ritchie, he starred alongside Henry Cavill and Eiza González, but the film was a commercial disappointment in cinemas.
In the revived Broadway production of Othello, he played Iago alongside Denzel Washington, and the production became the highest-grossing play in Broadway history.
Amazon MGM Studios announced the continuation of the film Road House, in which Gyllenhaal will return to the role of Dalton and also serve as a producer.
